Earn as you ride with Careem Rewards

Dubai, United Arab emirates, 18 February 2019: Careem has launched Careem Rewards - one of the biggest rewards programme in the region with over 33 million users.

The rewards programme is already active on all 33 million Careem users apps and gives points on all rides paid by cash, card, or invoice - in any country in which they are riding with Careem.

Mudassir Sheikha, Careems co-founder and CEO, pointed out, Someone who uses Careem daily to commute will, as a result of Careem REWARDS, get at least two free rides per month.

Careem Gold

If Careem customers take 15 rides a month they will achieve the Careem Gold status and enjoy benefits including 50 percent more points awarded on all rides, priority support across channels, and other special offers exclusive to Gold customers.

Once unlocked, Careem Gold status is active for the month in which it was achieved, as well as the following two months. To maintain the Gold status, users have to unlock it again before it expires.

The launch of Careem REWARDS is part of Careems ongoing platform strategy as Careem continues to build the leading tech-enabled platform in the region. Careem customers will soon also earn Careem points on all their food orders placed on Careem NOW, the recently-launched delivery app, and any spend on other Careem services.

Charitable donations

Careem points can be converted into credit appearing in the app wallet to spend on rides or used to fund a range of charity donations. Charities include the UN Refugee Agency UNHCR and other local charities will appear depending on the users location.

Just 2,500 Careem points will feed a child for a day or help a refugee obtain cooking gas. For 6,000 points, users can fund a childs education for a day, while 15,000 points will feed a child for an entire week. Careem REWARDS has also partnered with the WWF in Pakistan and for only 900 points users can help the planet by having a tree planted.

Careem already has other existing partnerships in place, including schemes with Emirates Skywards, STC Qitaf, Shukran, Air Miles, Etihad, and Etisalat Smiles.

Careem REWARDS will be adding more top-tier partners and well-known brands in the coming months.
